Asus TUF RTX 3080Ti Waterblock?

psykix · 9 Nov 2023 at 17:15

Is there one at a sensible price? I was looking at the Phanteks ones but not sure which one would fit? There seems to be a TUF 3080/3090 one and a 3090Ti one, but not a specific 3080Ti one.

EKWB one seems to be EOL.

I don't really want RGB as it will be in an Ncase M1, but no biggie if it does.

See if there's one from
Barrow or byski
Ocuk have started stocking quite a bit
Of Barrow stuff lately

Yeah the only 2 available options seem to be a Barrow one or an Alphacool. Think will go with the Alphacool

And I have an evga 3080ti
Pretty sure it said fits
3080,3080ti, 3090 on mine
So it's possible the phanteks one would fit
Though obviously you have to be certain
When it comes to gpu blocks

Try out alphacool's eisblocks

very good performance on my 3090

I thought about that but reviews seemed to indicate that the VRAM runs hot with them?

I know this review is not exactly the same TUF waterblock so may not apply but it gave cause for concern.

Again, not the same, but I've got the alphacool block on my 3080ti and the temps are great. I would trust they're not idiots and even if the memory temps are slightly higher than other blocks, it's not like they're worse than the stock cooler which in turn is nowhere near the tjmax of the chips.
